Mike,
With the 525 boat there are more standard features such as a class A faired and finished engine room, a Fully Infused hull, and a non-wood stringer system. By the way I am not trying to sound like a prick, but the pricing sheet that I got from Mercury shows my cost to be alot more than 30k for the pair.

THAT'S GOOD NEW'S I DIDNT KNOW THERE WAS A DIFFRENT BUILD PROCESS ON THE 2 DIFFRENT BOAT'S BUT IM GLAD YOU POINTED THAT OUT . THE 525 BOAT WILL BE ALOT LIGHTER THEN THE 496 BOAT .
AS FAR AS OEM PRICING . THE LAST TIME I LOOKED AT THE SHEET 496HO PACKAGE WAS AROUND $ 20K AND THE 525 PACKAGE WAS AROUND $33 K A PEICE. MAYBE THE PRICE WHENT UP SOME BUT IT CANT BE THAT MUCH .
BUT WITH THE EXTRA WORK AND LAYUP THAT YOUR DOING TO THE BOAT WILL HELP JUSTIFY THE PRICE . SO WHAT SPEED DO YOU THINK WITH TWIN 496HO'S STAG WITH THE HEAVY LAYUP ?,

THANK'S
MIKE

Will history repeat itself?
Well I got a phone call last night from one of the partners that was from Baja Marine involved with this project. There is a good chance that XT-Innovations could be involved with designing, and building the interiors for them?

I hope so.
Good luck!
Do you have a boat completed yet?
Jason,
The deck is almost identical to the 399 but the hull is new. The boat has the same high speed, if not faster than the 399 it also has alot more stability at high speeds.

Cool. Look forward to seeing/hearing more about it.

At any rate at least the company name is a lot better this time around.
